Ionizing RadiationA SMARTER PLAN ON HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF by Dr. Jack Tips (N.D., Ph.D., C.Hom, C.C.N.)

W ith the recent meltdown of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors in Japan (March, 2011), Americans

bought out the entire supply of potassium iodine and potassium iodide available on the market in less

than two days. However this is a knee-jerk fear reaction, and there’s actually a smarter way to address the

fact that nuclear radiation will inevitably find its way into your body.

Fukushima, Japan reactor explosion

Why Are People Taking Iodine?

Potassium Iodide (KI for kali iodatum) is a first aid

recommendation for nuclear reactor outgassing because it

prevents radioactive

iodine from entering

the thyroid gland

where it causes cell

death and cancer.

The thyroid gland is

a sponge for iodine

and cannot tell the

difference between

stabile iodine and radioactive Iodine-131. Since radioactive

Iodine-131 is a significant contaminant when nuclear reactors

have mishaps, the thyroid suffers the most damage.

When a person takes KI, a stabile form of inorganic iodine,

it fills up the thyroid receptors and then the thyroid cannot

absorb the radioactive Iodine-131 emitted from the reactor

meltdown for up to 24 hours. But where’s the radioactive

iodine 24 hours later? Yes, it’s still there, waiting. So for KI to

work, it needs to saturate the thyroid daily, and this can be

dangerous as I’ll explain.

The current radiation scare brings us right back to the theme

of this series of Research Reports – We Live & Die At The

Cellular Level – and it provides a platform for our further

discussion on the truth that when we nourish our cells, our

bodies can be resilient and healthy, even in a polluted world.

Potassium Iodine / Potassium Iodide – Not The Answer

There are a number of reasons to not take KI, and certainly

not on an on-going basis. If too much is taken or it’s taken for

too long, many varied symptoms develop. Such symptoms

are listed in the

Homeopathic Materia

Medica and include:

allergies, salivary

gland inflammation,

thyroid pathologies,

rhinitis, canker sores,

recurring pneumonia,

bone tumors, Hashimoto’s, and chronic urethritis. KI can

result in making the thyroid either hypo or hyper depending

on the individual’s genetics.

Protecting the thyroid is important as it’s the most vulnerable

tissue to I-131 radiation damage, and KI does offer temporary

protection, but KI does not protect other vital organs such

as the liver, heart, and lungs. Further, KI does not protect the

body from other radioactive particles such as Cesium-137

which affects the potassium rich muscles and every cell via

the cell membrane’s sodium-potassium pump. Nor does it

- 2 -

protect the body from uranium isotopes. So KI is really limited

in its scope. KI is a band aid, it’s not a very good one at that.

Balance in All Things

To understand the danger of taking too much iodine or

iodide, let’s discuss how the thyroid makes thyroxines—its

iodine-based hormones that helps run the body’s metabolic

rate, protein synthesis, and growth hormones.

When thyroxine decreases in the body, the hypothalamus

senses this and tells the pituitary to release a hormone called

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) that tells the thyroid

gland to make some more thyroxine. This is how the endocrine

system maintains checks and balances for optimal health.

The thyroid gland only uses the molecule known as iodide to

make its various thyroxine molecules. The thyroid cells absorb

iodide and within its cells, it converts iodide to iodine, and then

it makes thyroxine from iodine and tyrosine. This conversion

of iodide to iodine utilizes an oxidative process based on

hydrogen peroxide.

Oxidative processes require

controls called antioxidants.

Too much oxidation results

in free radical damage. Free

radicals damage DNA and

cause apoptosis, or self-willed

cell death. Further, damaged

cells alert the immune system to come help clean up the

debris and ensure that those damaged cells do not turn into

rogue cells (tumors).

When TSH is elevated, it means that the thyroid must

make more hydrogen peroxide. Thus TSH increases free

radical concerns within the thyroid. This long term oxidative

process causes some thyroid cells to burn up or in nuclear-

speak, to “melt down,” and this process is synonymous with

inflammation. When the damaged cells break open, they

release their hydrogen peroxide and this inflames the thyroid

tissue. When the immune system arrives on the inflammatory

scene, it attacks the thyroid because of the damaged, rogue

cells. This is the basis for the thyroid autoimmune disease,

Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.

Here again, we see that chronic inflammation results in

chronic-degenerative and autoimmune diseases. [In this series

of Research Reports, the first two dealt with inflammation

and free radicals, so you can now see how far-reaching this

subject is and how we must become masters of cellular health

if we’re to have optimal health].

A lack of iodine/iodide is a deficiency that causes low thyroid

output of thyroxine. An overabundance of iodine/iodide

is an excessive condition that can trigger elevated TSH and

cause increased oxidative damage to thyroid cells resulting in

excessive immune activity. So it’s the old story of “Goldilocks

And The Three Bears,” not enough iodine is too cold, too

much iodine is too hot. The body needs just the right amount.

People taking KI for an extended period of time gain a little

thyroid protection but run the risk of pushing the thyroid

toward inflammation and the immune system’s resulting

involvement. That, coupled with the fact that KI does not

protect the body from other ionizing radiations (uranium,

plutonium, cesium, sulfur, cobalt, etc.) and it does not protect

other organs, means that KI is slightly useful, but a feeble

solution at best.

How Radioactivity Kills

What happens when a radioactive molecule impacts a cell? It

ionizes the DNA and kills the cell or creates an aberrant cell

(tumor) This is the positive-ion, free-radical story. The cells

that are the most vulnerable to ionizing radiation are those that

rapidly divide, and those that are in the process of reproducing.

Systemic Formulas: Solutions Here & Now Research Repor t #5

This is the basis for medical radiation therapy. The ionizing

radiation damages the tumor’s DNA causing it to die before

the radiation destroys the healthy cells. The result is a partially

damaged body instead of a dead body.

Radiation Protection – Not Just For Disasters

The USA has tested nuclear bombs and created nuclear fall

out in the following states: New Mexico, Nevada, Mississippi,

Colorado, and on Pacific and Atlantic Islands. Radiation

exposure is nothing new to the USA peoples. Other countries

have tested nuclear bombs all over the world as well.

Radioactive ammunition is fired frequently in Southern

California (Camp Pendleton) causing radioactive drift around

San Diego. So the current concerns about nuclear radiation

only serve to punctuate the fact that planet Earth has been

enshrouded in nuclear radiation since the first bomb test in

New Mexico in 1945. And then there was Three Mile Island,

Chernobyl, and minor incidents in many locations.

So a temporary and risky plan such as the

one provided by KI is not the solution. In

1986 Doc Wheelwright taught the soak

baths that Dr. Hazel Parcells developed. A

person can get rid of uranium isotopes with

a simple soak bath of Epsom Salts, or by

adding two pounds of baking soda and two

pounds of sea salt to a bathtub of water. Both magnesium salts

and baking soda have a well-establish history of helping with

topical radiation exposures. Baking soda used internally has

an additional history of alkalizing the kidneys and promoting

excretion of radioactive particles from the body. The baths

are for exposures that are on the skin, as well as in the hair

and pores of the skin,

not for deep tissue

exposures.

The real concern

regarding the recent

radioactivity is that it

lands on farm pastures

around the world. The goats and cows will eat the radioactive

particles on the grass and pass the radiation to people via milk

and cheese and glow-in-the-dark burgers.

So now, dear friends, what is the best thing you can do for

radiation? Let’s check some research and see if we can find

something that can be used every day. Let’s see if we can find

something that not only addresses radiation protection and

detox, but also helps detoxify environmental chemicals such

as pesticides and PCB’s. What if that same substance happened

to provide the body wonderful nascent amino acids as well as

nascent vitamin B-12 and trace minerals? As long as we’re

playing the guessing game, what if this same substance slowed

the cellular aging processes by providing rich RNA and DNA

nucleic factors? And, what if that same substance boosted the

immune system via the macrophage activity? Something this

good, surely it’s medically documented to help prevent and

overcome radiation exposure, right? Right!

Chlorella

Shortly after World War

II, the Japanese discovered

an amazing characteristic of

the single cell algae, chlorella.

After the Nagasaki and

Hiroshima atomic bombings in 1945, food and crops were

obliterated. There was a dire food shortage. The USA helped

Japan rebuild and used chlorella as a rapidly produced source

of protein and vitamins. Prior to this the Germans had used

another species of algae, spirulina, in similar fashion after

World War I.

Soon a remarkable thing occurred. The chlorella provided

dramatic benefits for those who ate it. They recovered from

the radiation sickness whereas the people who did not eat

chlorella died. This caused the Japanese government to launch

extensive studies on the benefits of chlorella. They soon found

that chlorella has the unique ability to absorb nuclear radiation

as well as mercury and other chemical toxins and remove

them from the body. This is why, today, we use chlorella in

Dr. Hazel Parcells age 106

the Systemic Formulas Detoxification Program (see Research

Report #4: A New Model for Detoxification).

Resulting from this initial research, Japan built a multi-billion

dollar industry on farming chlorella as a super health food,

vegetable source of protein, and nutritional supplement that

provides nascent B vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals.

In addition to being the premier solution for nuclear radiation

exposure, Chlorella has many benefits such as:

• Supports digestive processes

• Increases colonies of beneficial probiotics

•Protects cells from free radical damage with antioxidants

• Supports repair of RNA and DNA

•Detoxifies heavy metals and PCBs, better than the chelating

agent DMPS (Dimaval; 2,3-dimercapto-1-propane sulfonate, Na+)

•Provides super nutrition via chlorophyll

• Supports immune system effectiveness, induces interferon

•Provides a wealth of nascent nutrients

•Provides a vegetarian source of Vitamin B-12

•Helps alkalize and balance the pH

• Supports weight loss and maintenance of proper weight

•Detoxes nuclear radiation

• Supports glutathione (chief detoxifier, anti-oxidant)

•Contains “chlorella growth factor” (CGF) that stimulates

rejuvenation and cellular healing

•Provides abundant beta carotene, a cell protective

precursor of Vitamin A.

•Normalizes blood sugar and blood pressure

•Protects the body from ultraviolet radiation

•Helps detoxify the liver and blood

Back in 1945 after the atomic bombing of

Japan, Tatsuichiro Akizuki, M.D. was Director

of the Department of Internal Medicine at

St. Francis’s Hospital in Nagasaki, right in the

middle of the high radiation zone. This astute

doctor insisted that his staff and patients eat

only brown rice, chlorella, miso soup with seaweeds such

as kombu, mozuku, wakame, and other seaweeds. He also

prohibited eating sweets and sugar knowing that they stress

the immune system.

His patients and staff did not die from radiation poisoning

whereas people located many miles away from the explosion

suffered severe radiation poisoning and death. Dr. Akizuki

knew that the sea vegetables contain substances such as

sodium alginate, that bind radioactive particles and help

remove them from the body. This is the basis why seaweed

and chlorella are used to treat radiation victims.

Seaweeds provide sodium alginate and iodine from nature as

opposed to a chemical KI, and the chlorella is the earth’s best

anti-radiation food, even better than spirulina.

Chlorella has a unique cell membrane. It’s thick and designed by

Nature to repel toxins and heavy metals. This is why chlorella

has been able to survive for the past two million years.

When chlorella is used dietarily, it is best processed to crack

the cell to gain access to the rich chlorophyll and nutrients

inside the cell, but most of all, it’s the tough cell membrane

that imparts chlorella’s anti-nuclear radiation properties.

Special technologies are used to crack the cells open so their

precious nutrition is readily available for human consumption.

Tocotrienols Provide Inner Cell Protection From Ionizing Radiations

Natural Vitamin E from plants is a fat-soluble, anti-oxidant

composed of four methylated phenols called “tocopherols”

(designated alpha, beta, gamma, delta tocopherols) and four

double bonded trienes called “tocotrienols” (designated

alpha, beta, gamma, delta

tocotrienols). So there are eight

fractions comprising the whole

Vitamin E complex.

Most research has been focused

on the alpha tocopherol fraction,

but recently, research is revealing

the value of the whole Vitamin E

complex. Now medical researchers

(see references) are finding that tocotrienols help the body:

•Lower Cholesterol by reducing the liver’s cholesterol

production

•Protect against brain damage particularly after a stroke

• Survive pancreatic cancer

• Inhibit breast cancer by better inducing apoptosis in both

estrogen-responsive and unresponsive breast cancer

cells.

• Suppress prostate cancer cell proliferation through the

cell signaling mechanism

•Reduce incidents of skin cancer and improves

chemotherapy outcomes for malignant melanomas

•Reduce the risk of acquiring type 2 diabetes

•Reduce the risk of Alzheimers

•Protect the cells against radiation exposure.

It is interesting to note those powerful and important

benefits of Vitamin E’s tocotrienol fractions, especially after

the 1994 deliberate smear campaign launched by individuals

and business entities opposed to natural health based on a

seriously flawed study in Finland that used synthetic beta

carotene and a synthetic fraction of Vitamin E (dl-alpha, note

the “dl” designation which refers to the synthetic, reversed

(mirror image) molecule that won’t work in the body). The

study was entitled “The Effect of Vitamin E and Beta Carotene

on the Incidence of Lung Cancer and Other Cancers in Male

Smokers.” This study was conducted on people in Finland

where there is a known deficiency of selenium (Vitamin E’s

life partner) and who hold the honor “the world’s greatest

consumers of alcohol” (known to deplete Vitamin E from

the body), and the study commenced shortly after Finland

received a very heavy dose of radiation from the Chernobyl

nuclear reactor catastrophe.

Despite the hundreds of medical studies that prove that

Vitamin E helps prevent lung cancer, the media was fed

a study where only one fraction of synthetic dl-alpha

tocopheryl was used with synthetic beta carotene, and it was

reported that tobacco smokers had a 5% increase of lung

cancer per 100 I.U. administered. There was no increase

in non-smokers. The misinformation presented to the

media’s sound-byte mentality was that “Vitamin E causes

lung cancer,” and the media blindly bought it and spewed

it out of their mouths like radiation from a cracked nuclear

reactor, and have fostered a criminal disservice upon the

people of the United States. Be it known, now and forever,

our cells, hearts, arteries, brains, hormones, lungs, prostates

and breasts, need Nature’s Vitamin E daily – in fact, we can’t

live without it. That’s Nature’s story and she’s sticking to it!

That skewed study’s results parallels a little-known study

that showed that the synthetic, isolated, dl-alphatocopheryl, in

the absence of the complete Vitamin E complex, and more

specifically the gamma tocotrienol fraction, actually depletes

cells of Vitamin E and thus interrupts the glutathione-based

antioxidant processes. It seems that overuse of the synthetic

fraction serves as a magnet to pull tocotrienols out of the

cells (nature abhors a vacuum) in an attempt to reassemble

the complete Vitamin E molecule. Thus, there is a precedent

for problems with synthetic dl-alpha tocopheryl, so don’t use

synthetic Vitamin E! And please rest assured that Systemic

Formulas only uses natural Vitamin E.

Systemic Formulas: Solutions Here & Now

Since the smear campaign was so adroitly launched via

national newspapers and television, there has been a decline

in Vitamin E supplementation. It’s past time for the decline

to stop and an increase is warranted now more than ever

before. Look again at the major benefits of tocotrienol

supplementation. There are a hundred more benefits to

taking whole-complex Vitamin E. (Whole complex Vitamin E

is naturally derived because synthetic tocotrienols are too

expensive to isolate and market.)

During his lifetime, Doc Wheelwright was

quite outspoken about the dangers of

synthetic Vitamin E and he was outraged

that it was being used for neonatal infants

in hospitals and sold in health food stores

as “natural Vitamin E.” He taught us to

always use Vitamin E from plant sources—not the chemistry

set by-product from the photographic chemical industry.

Two components of the natural vitamin E complex, gamma-

tocotrienol and delta-tocotrienol are showing great promise in

protecting the cells from ionizing, nuclear radiation.

Meticulous research conducted by the Armed Forces

Radiobiology Research Institute (AFRRI) demonstrated that

subcutaneous gamma-tocotrienol injections to mice a day

before giving them doses of radiation increased survival by

over 75% compared to controls. Even at lethal, high radiation

doses, the gamma-tocotrienol injected mice showed an

unprecedented 40% survival rate. Subsequent research by

the AFRRI revealed that the delta tocotrienol offers similar

protection to radiation.

Vitamin E, like all vitamins, is best

administered in its natural and

complete form with all its

accompanying synergists. Doc’s

mentor, Dr. Royal Lee, was an

early proponent of whole complex,

natural vitamins and published that message citing that Vitamin

C required its accompanying bioflavonoids to be effective. Doc

Wheelwright worked with Dr. Lee and was an early crusader

for natural supplements, and it was through his correspondence

with the Russian bioenergy pioneers, Drs. Semyon and

Valentina Kirlian, that Doc authenticated the dramatic difference

between nature’s vitamins and synthetic vitamins.

Doc researched the bioenergetic

signatures of vitamins and even found

a way to incorporate them into a

specific herbal matrix for increased

effectiveness. He claimed that he

found that certain herbs could re-align

a USP vitamin and make its energy field

equate that of a plant-derived vitamin.

He developed specific formulas for what herbs go with each

B-Vitamin.

When Doc put his original Vitamin E on the market, called

EZV, only the one natural fraction, d-alpha tocopherol was

available. Doc put that into a dry honey-bake base for

chewable, sublingual absorption. Doc’s research showed

that Vitamin E was injured by the stomach acids reducing its

bioavailability, and he wanted immediate assimilation of this

critically important nutrient.

With the advent of recent research on

tocotrienols coupled with availability

viable whole Vitamin E complexes,

and with Doc’s grandson, Dr. Shayne

Morris, being responsible for the

production of Systemic’s formulas, Dr.

Morris immediately updated the EZV formula to include the

whole, natural Vitamin E complex that is available today.

Systemic offers a natural tocopherol complex (alpha, beta,

gamma, delta) replete with its complimentary tocotrienols

(alpha, beta, gamma, delta) in a chewable form that retains

the sublingual absorption properties. And this is just perfect

to address the issue of radioprotective nutrition where we

want to enrich our cells with specific antioxidants that defend

our cells from ionizing radiations. The sublingual absorption

means that the tocotrienols go into the lymphatic system

to be delivered to every cell without deterioration by the

stomach acids.

Potassium and Cesium-137

Another concern exists from the Cesium-137 that gets

absorbed into the body from nuclear radiation. Dr. Shayne

Morris points out that Cesium competes with potassium and

thus can damage areas of the body where potassium is rich

– the muscles, as well as every cell membrane’s respiratory

process known as the sodium potassium pump.

For this reason, Dr. Morris recommends taking additional

potassium to protect the body from Cesium filling the potassium

slots. Most people are deficient in potassium, so taking 4-6

PTM (Potassium Stabilizer) is advisable, particularly during

times where Cesium-137 is an increased environmental factor.

By ensuring that the body’s potassium processes are stoked

with potassium, the Cesium-137 is better addressed by the

chlorella because it won’t be incorporated into the body

matrix, whereas KI won’t help nearly as much.

Putting It All Together

Systemic Formulas has the three

most important supplements to

help protect the body from nuclear

radiation molecules that run errant

in the earth’s atmosphere resulting in lung and skin contact,

and end up in the human food chain and thus can damage

cells everywhere in the body. The lungs, thyroid, bones and,

well, every cell is vulnerable to the DNA-damaging, disease

causing effects of radiation.

While at this writing, there is a national fear reaction occurring

because of the horrendous nuclear reactor explosions in

Japan, so far the radiation poses only a small threat on the

American continent. The real issue is the fact that there is

ongoing exposure to ionizing radiation and such radiations

damage DNA. We are all being exposed to nuclear and

ionizing radiation frequently. Even natural health people!

Radiation is part of our natural environment. Here is a table

of radiation sources that affect people:

Source ExposureMan-made 2%

Food/water 9%

Cosmic Rays 14%

Earth-gamma 14%

Medical 24%

Radon (Earth) 37%

The point emphasized here is that human nutrition is supposed

to handle living on the Earth. However, humankind has

polluted the earth, created deadly new radioactive elements,

and created an empty harvest of nutrient-depleted foods.

Supplementation is one necessary response because even

organically grown foods can carry radioactive particles into

the body. We all need extra protection at the cellular level.

This means that the wise person will use daily supplementation

of protective nutrients. Here is a summary of the key

components.

REL (Chlorella) - This is the leading

radioprotective supplement with a powerhouse of

other daily health benefits. It captures radioactive

particles like a chelating agent for removal from the

body. Its fabulous nutrition provides key protective elements

(chlorophyll, nascent vitamins and proteins) for the tissues.

Systemic offers a high efficiency, cracked cell chlorella.

EZV (200 I.U. Vitamin E) – Tocopherols

& Tocotrienols intact. Specific protection for

the inner cell. Prevents ionizing radiation from

damaging DNA and other cell organelles. A tumor-

inhibitive antioxidant needed throughout the body. Systemic

offers a chewable, sublingual whole complex, plant-source

Vitamin E.

PTM (Potassium Stabilizer) - Plant derived

& greatly needed by all eukaryotic (membrane

enclosed complex structures) cells, fills the

potassium receptors so Cesium-137 cannot

mistakenly be absorbed. Supports the muscles, heart, and

electrolyte functions of every cell.

As a follow up program to further support both the thyroid’s

and liver’s detoxification processes, it just makes sense to do

the following program offered by Dr. Timothy Kuss and Dr.

Cory Carter:

Meta-Oxy Test Helps Monitor Anti-Oxidant Protection

In this program to help protect the body from radioactive particles either damaging or destroying the cells our strategy is to provide the body the radiation scavenging (chelating) advantage of chlorella coupled with the inner cell protection of Vitamin E’s tocotrienol activity. Since ionizing radiation can damage DNA and create free radicals, a handy general marker to determine if there is excessive oxidation of cell membranes as well as the cell’s ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate) generating processes.

Referring back to Research Reports #s 1 and 2, if the Meta-Oxy test reveals excessive cell membrane peroxidation, it is an excellent idea to address that with the ROX (Super Antioxidant with Resveratrol) and EPIC (Metabolic NO/ONOO) formulas.

The Meta-Oxy test is simple, quick and inexpensive, and it reveals the necessity to increase supplementation so the body can reduce inflammation and have more needed protection. Meta-Oxy determines the amount of oxidative damage by measuring malandialdehyde in the urine and the color change with the test vial reveals the conclusion.

Here is a comprehensive protocol for such circumstances where there is already a high degree of oxidative stress coupled with the issue of radiation exposure. Further, the cells repair mechanism utilized methylation to effect returning to optimal health, so the methylation product, MoRS, is applicable for optimal nutritional support.

Nature provides the answers and natural substances such as chlorella (REL) and potassium from grapes (PTM) hold the best preventatives and best therapies for our modern day concerns.
